This book is a collection of historical curiosities and oddities from around the world. Translated from the original Greek by Antigonus (Carystius), the text covers a wide range of topics including strange animals, outlandish customs, and miraculous events. A fascinating glimpse into the minds of the ancients and their perceptions of the world around them.

This critical edition of Strabo's Geography, in its original Greek and adorned with annotations, is an essential text for both classicists and medievalists. Edited and improved by Johann Philipp Siebenkees with precision to lexicographic and manuscript traditions.
